We fell in love with the Lot et Garonne region in Aquitaine, South West France and were lucky enough to buy our house, with secure, private gardens, on the edge of a village but with the most beautiful views. We hope you love it as much as we do.

Our three bedroomed gite has lovely wooden shutters which keep out both the heat and the light - we tend to over sleep whenever we stay! We also have an above ground (but with plenty of surrounding decking so you can jump in) 10m x 5m private pool and over an acre of secure, fenced, private gardens. To keep everyone happy, we also have a full Sky package and free wifi. There is a large, covered terrace along the front of the property where you can sit to soak in the views.

Tombeboeuf is a village with a bakery, butchers, two general stores, a hotel restaurant and a fabulous gold club (Golf de Barthe) which has a great bar and cafe and welcomes everyone, irrespective of whether they wish to play golf. The village is in the beautiful Lot et Garonne region in Aquitaine, South West France. The region is often compared to Tuscany in Italy as a result of its comparable rolling landscape. Tombeboeuf is very well situated to visit many of the neighbouring towns and villages such as Eymet in the Dordogne, Marmande, Villeneuve sur Lot, Monpazier, Villereal and Monflanquin - many of these are wonderful bastide towns and well worth a visit. We are also just over one hour's drive from Bordeaux and 40 minutes from Bergerac.

On arrival, we looked in the key box for the key, the key wasn't there.... we eventually found it, as it had been left in the main shutter door. As we explored our new Holiday 'demeure', we discovered afew things that I'm taking this opportunity to talk to you about. The wifi is great though. As I said we did find the key, but actually didn't need it to open the house, as the house shutters and door were already open.. Both BBQ's were VERY dirty, with half burned kitchen roll, old charcoal and the the grill was thick with black grease, which i don't know how long it had been there. On entering the house, the floors, benches in the kitchen and toilet/bathroom/shower were spotless, and the beds beautifully made, wonderful!! But in every corner in every room, around every window frame,there are incrusted, dead insects and cobwebs. There are dead insects underneath the beds, they haven't been sweeped, and a very strong smell of damp in the kitchen, living room space. The velux in our children's bedrooms are covered and ribboned with cobwebs and living spiders, and also very dirty. (also the cubby-hole in the child's room is full of insects), and the bedside lamp in the smaller double room wasn't working..(and afew wooden squares holding up the middle of the bed..). The frying pan was oozing with a greasy film, which I had to soak and wash before use. The ladder going into the swimming pool moves every time it's used...(bit scary for the children.) The door doesn't lock properly, which whilst we're here is no problem, we're a little concerned about when we go off for the day, and the security of the house? We're rather surprised to see there are no smoke alarms anywhere in the house...And unfortunately, the noise from the two converging roads is surprisingly loud.

For the tourist, there is a lot to do! Local Bastide towns include Eymet, just 15 minutes by car, or a little further - 25 minutes, Monflanquin, built in 1256 as a military town. Monflanquin has many art and craft shops, a beautiful square with a market every Thursday, and stunning views over Lot et Garonne from the elevated plateau of the town.
Villereal, another beautiful Bastide, has a busy market, held twice a week on Wednesdays and Saturdays in the summer. It has a wonderful selection of local mouth-watering produce to help make your picnic or evening meal one to remember.
Monpazier is one of the 'Plus beaux villages de France' and as well as being the best preserved Bastide in the Dordogne, has many craft workshops.
Besides the famous Bastide towns with their arcaded central squares and medieval architecture, the area is famous for it's wine.
Local chateaux including the Chateau de Duras and Chateau de Mobazillac are well worth a visit. Set in the heart of the prestigious vineyard of the same name, the Chateau de Monbazillac's garden terraces afford stunning views across the Dordogne.
To enjoy the local wine, try wine tasting at some of the numerous vineyards and caves, or follow Bergerac's wine route, St Emillion, a UNESCO World Heritage site and fascinating hill town, is about an hour's drive away.
Other activities include fishing at Lake Escourroux, the largest water reserve in Aquitane, which is also a superb site for hikers. For younger visitors, an Aqua park in Bergerac offers four swimming pools with water chutes, archery and mini-quads. For all the family, a man-made beach just 15 minutes away at Lougratte has a sandy beach surrounded by grass with children's play areas, a water chute and boat hire with picnic areas. If you are a golfer (or just enjoy a glass of wine in a beautiful setting), Chateau des Vigiers is a must, an 18 hole par 72 golf course, it also has a spa - for long suffering partners!
I could go on, but am more than happy to advise further before or during the visit; locally there are excellent stables for horse riding, virtually traffic free roads to cycle down (we can advise on cycle hire), and canoe hire at many places along the river.

A big thank you to Debbie (and Paul) for their warm welcome and little touches (bread, succulent strawberry jam, wine, beer, milk, orange juice ... in the fridge when we arrived). The house is very nice, very clean and functional with a great view from the terrace over the surrounding countryside. The pool area is beautiful with everything you need to play and relax. We have much advantage and our two daughters are happy. The cottage is ideally situated for exploring the beautiful region of Lot et Garonne. We will return with great pleasure and recommend this place to other travelers.

Dany was helpful and owns a very nice house which was great for our group of nine. Good kitchen, nice tables, fun pool, etc. Be aware though on what you agreement on; for instance the bed linen and the number of persons. Dany also rents this place out via other sites (with different terms) and we had some misunderstandings about the deal. It didn't help that she speaks only French and hardly understands English. Apart from that, we had a very good time in Tombebeouf.

Come and enjoy an unusual location in the trees in the South West. The cabin with a beautiful view is perched 6 meters in the countryside, near the Périgord. Its implementation has required hundreds of hours and thousands of holes, screws and other cuts.

We had a wonderful stay in the countryside. Sleeping between the trees is a great experience. Our 2 children (5 years old and 2 years old) enjoyed playing in the open and they were a big fan of all the animals. The view on the lake and hillside is beautiful. We got a great breakfast the first morning and during our stay also some delicious vegetables and fruit, directly from the garden. Margot and her husband were very friendly and helpful. If you like peace and quietness this is the place. Miramont, village with stores, restaurants, ... is at only 15 min. by car.

Very enjoyable cottage in a lovely farming environment. The house was kept cool and perfectly calm, and furbished with taste. The location is great to discover the numerous nice places in the area. Keith and Victoria were discret but warm and avaible when needed. As hosts they made sure that everything was provided to ensure that our stay was as confortable and pleasant as possible (and thanks for the cookies and various products from the garden!)... We will undoubtedly be delighted to come again !

The gite is spacious and comfortable and includes interesting original features such as oak beams, with the luxury of a private pool, in the Lot et Garonne region in South West France. The Moirax gite sits in ten acres of rural countryside.

Dennis was a great host from the start and once we arrived was always on hand to offer support and assistance where required. The booking was straight forward and the directions easy to follow and hard to get lost in such a small village. The gite itself was lovely - very spacious and well equipped in the kitchen. We stayed with two young children so did a lot of cooking and never felt that we were short a pot or pan! The gardens and pool are private and well kept. Having access to pick plums and tomatoes from the vegetable patch and and fruit trees was also a nice touch. The area is very peaceful and very quiet - a few minutes drive to the nearest shop and 15 mins from a few bigger supermarkets. There are some lovely old towns to explore but we didn't get out much. We were happy to play around the pool, relax in the gardens and enjoy the good food and wine from the region. Thank you Dennis for making sure we had a lovely break.

My place is close to a major town (6 kms) with restaurants, bars, cinema, banks etc. We are located in a quiet, tranquil setting within a small village. You’ll love my place because of the peace & quiet and beautiful views. It is an ideal location for couples, solo adventurers, and business travelers with a car.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Francoise was so welcoming and made us feel at home. We were sad to leave.

We felt privileged to be Francoise' guests. She received us in a relaxed and easy going way, so as to be immediately very comfortable in her beautiful home. We were invited to use most rooms of the house, especially the kitchen for cooking meals. Francoise was attentive and very kind. Conversations were a pleasure and she gave us good recommendations to experience the Lot/Dordogne area. Her home was tastefully decorated and clean. Our bedroom had exceptional views of the countryside. The tiny village perched on a hilltop was peaceful and breezes cooled the rooms and garden. Pretty plantings enhanced the mediterranean feel as one strolled through the garden to the swimming pool. We had a very enjoyable and relaxing stay and would love to return some day.

A 12 place bedroom in the middle of the wonderful south west of France contryside.
Lunch and diner available on demand with "gastonomique" and local meal.
The accommodation is situated in an horse farm with friendly people

We chose this horse farm as a last minute destination for our extended family of 8 (with teenagers) for a one night stay as they were very affordable and close to the highway for our drive north to Paris. We all slept in bunk beds in a dormitory. This is in a loft above the central lounge area but as it was summer, everyone was outdoors so we weren't bothered by any noise. The atmosphere is quite ranch/camp style. The bedroom was very hot at night, despite the fan Carole provided. Bathroom facilities were all shared but clean and good. Carole and her family were just lovely and looked after us very well. She kindly provided linen at an additional fee but the price overall was very good. There was a small holiday group of children camping there at the same time but they were no bother at all. Do have the EU12 dinner if you are offered it - we had 4 courses finishing with delightful cheeses and the best homemade chocolate tart.
